    XJ11 Snorkel photo?

    After many delays I'm about to put the airbox back in the XJ11 & sad to say but I don't have any "pre removal" photos of the snorkel properly snugged into it's resting place. Any photos of said snorkel under the seat so I can see how to aim it during insertion?

    I have an apparent case of CRS & need all the help I can get...

    Suggestions?

    Thanks

      On the XS the opening of the snorkel faces towards the rear of the bike... not sure if its the same for the XJ... It should only fit one way!

          It does face the back of the bike

                  G'morning,

                  Yes, I remember it faces backward but does it go on top of the battery & what wiring or such has to be moved aside to get it in there.

                  Someone here was kind enough to send me some photos of Carb positioning & was going to send photos of airbox insertion but my laptop hard drive crashed and now only makes clicking sounds. With that went almost a month of data I'd gleaned on what to do & I lost all the emails received over that time.

                  I'd decided to go with pods just to make it all easier but then decided not to after reading enough caveats that I didn't want to loose gas mileage by rejetting. So now to reassemble the parts I'd earlier removed not planning to re-install.
